Abstract:
The paper describes an efficient way on how to reduce the number of car accidents caused by collision with damaged vehicles. It aims at assessing the current situation and to identify weaknesses and influence of planned or proposed solutions. The agile “System for Automated Forewarning of Vehicle Crashes” is introduced. The input data are collected from eCall system. Distribution of warning information is provided through Radio-Help broadcasting that ensured distribution of warning messages to drivers arriving to the place of an accident. With respect to the existing warning systems and its weaknesses, the ambient traffic warning service would allow us to get proper information on time during any kind of road problems.
